Highly recommend this. Highly. Take seven minutes and read. Because sanity, facts, and reason need all the support they can get in this sad world of ours.
Brief background: While researching the meat book, I no surprise encountered the whole "GMOs are evil and satanic" thing. I knew nothing about GMOs or why they mattered or what they can/can't do or be.

So of course I dug into the subject (for my own information; I don't discuss GMOs in the book). Took me, oh, about four minutes to realize that finding any substantial information was gonna take awhile. A month or so later, I'd learned enough to know that most of what passes for fact about GMOs is bullshit, pure and simple.
